"Cornerback had been one of the biggest needs on the roster heading into the offseason, and while it continues to be an area the Cowboys must improve on, this really helps out if they aren't able to get their top target or two at the position in the draft."
"Durant has been a nice contributor for an otherwise lackluster Rams secondary since he was drafted in 2022. Now, that's not because they selected him as a highly touted prospect: in fact, it's quite the opposite. Durant was drafted in the fourth round in 2022 out of South Carolina State, a small D1 HBCU."
The Dallas Cowboys signed former Los Angeles Rams cornerback Cobie Durant to a one-year contract, marking their seventh external free agent addition this offseason. This move addresses cornerback, one of the roster's biggest needs heading into the offseason. Durant, drafted in the fourth round in 2022 from South Carolina State, has been a solid contributor for the Rams despite being an undrafted prospect by traditional standards. The signing provides insurance in case top draft targets like LSU's Mansoor Delane or secondary options like Tennessee's Jermod McCoy or Clemson's Aveion Terrell are unavailable when Dallas picks. The one-year deal represents a low-cost, low-risk move that strengthens the secondary while maintaining draft flexibility.
